Intro

Deltek Vision is an ERP solution specifically for the project-focused firms, providing visibility into project budgets, schedules, and other project data. Use Domo’s Deltek connector to retrieve data about campaigns, opportunities, employee expenses and repayments, and other Deltek entities. To learn more about the Deltek API, visit their page (https://deltek.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/62647/kw/web%20services%20api). You connect to your Deltek account in the Data Center. This topic discusses the fields and menus that are specific to the Deltek connector user interface. General information for adding DataSets, setting update schedules, and editing DataSet information is discussed in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector. You can also connect to Deltek through the database that sits on premise on your network. In this case, use of SQL is required.

Prerequisites

To connect to your Deltek account and create a DataSet, you must have the following:
  • Your Deltek username
  • Your Deltek password
  • The domain name of your Deltek instance (for instance, if the instance was mycompany.deltek.com, the domain name would be mycompany)
  • The name of the database you want to retrieve data from
  • Your Deltek host name
  • Your Deltek host port number

Connecting to Your Deltek Account

This section enumerates the options in the Credentials and Details panes in the Deltek Connector page. The components of the other panes in this page, Scheduling and Name & Describe Your DataSet, are universal across most connector types and are discussed in greater length in Adding a DataSet Using a Data Connector.

Credentials Pane

This pane contains fields for entering credentials to connect to your Deltek account. The following table describes what is needed for each field:
